Probably a dumb question, but if you use vpn on a virtual machine, is there any chance that host machine IP is exposed to world?
I assume the tunnel is secure, but not being an expert on the subject and dns leaks etc. being reality, might as well ask.
My setup is Mint hosting Linux light with Proton vpn. Ipv6 disabled everywhere. Dns 1.1.1.1 on router, but Proton uses it’s own dns.
